AECOM acquires INOCSA Ingenieria
Written by William C. Vantuono, Editor-in-ChiefAECOM Technology Corp. has announced its acquisition of Madrid, Spain-based INOCSA Ingenieria, S.L., a professional technical services firm.
The acquisition bolster Los Angeles-based AECOM’s global presence; INOCSA has offices in Bosnia, Georgia, Honduras, Mali, Mexico, Romania, and Peru, as well as Spain, offering services in transportation, environmental, water, and architectural sectors. INOCSA has been involved with Spain’s expanding high speed rail program from its inception, AECOM says.
“INOCSA’s expertise in segments such as energy, environment, water, and transportation—and especially high speed rail, which is a focus for us around the world—makes it a natural fit with AECOM’s worldwide suite of services,” said AECOM President and CEO John M. Dionisio in a statement. “Its presence in Europe also augments our footprint on the continent. Conversely, our global platform will create new opportunities for INOCSA staff, and expand the service offerings available to their clients. We are delighted to welcome INOCSA to our global team.
“This acquisition is beneficial for both AECOM and INOCSA,” said Dionisio. “INOCSA gains access to the depth and breadth AECOM can offer, and AECOM enhances its high speed rail expertise with one of the most successful, experienced high speed rail firms in Europe. For high speed rail in the United States, this is especially significant. AECOM is doing its part to assemble and prepare a work force that can help implement a successful high speed rail program.”
